By Alhassan Haladu Yola.
The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Adamawa State Command, has vowed to deal decisively with anyone who threatens peace or disrupts public order during political campaigns and the forthcoming 2027 general elections.
The Corps' Public Relations Officer in Adamawa State, SC Amidu Nyako Baba, disclosed this during an interview with journalists in Yola.
SC Amidu said the Corps, under the leadership of Commandant Nasiru Sale, was fully prepared and had put necessary measures in place to prevent disturbances and violence before, during and after political campaigns across the state.
He warned youths against engaging in political thuggery or allowing themselves to be used by unscrupulous individuals to foment trouble during political campaigns and on election day, stressing that the Corps would not tolerate such acts.
He urged young people to channel their energy and talents towards promoting peaceful coexistence, unity and the strengthening of democracy in the state rather than engaging in political violence.
The NSCDC spokesperson also assured residents of the Corps' commitment to protecting lives and property, as well as government facilities, while ensuring that the rights of citizens are protected at all times.
He reaffirmed the Command's readiness to collaborate with other security agencies to strengthen security before, during and after the elections.
SC Amidu called on members of the public to support security agencies by providing credible intelligence and reporting suspicious activities to the nearest security formation for prompt action.
He urged residents to continue their lawful activities peacefully and without fear, assuring them that the Corps had deployed personnel to identify, arrest and ensure the prosecution of individuals planning to cause unrest.
